"How can any African-American – any African-American – ever vote Democrat?
"How can any farmer – any farmer – ever vote Democrat?
"For that matter, how can any parent, any small businessman, any American who owns real property, any American who values his or her constitutional rights, anyone victimized by predatory trial lawyers, any dedicated teacher who wants to teach effectively, just about any American ever vote Democrat.
"Aside from the fact that the Democratic Party is today more of a criminal conspiracy than a political organization, each of those cited above have every reason to despise what has become of the once proud and patriotic Democratic Party – the party that once fought valiantly for immigrants, for the exploited American working man, and against elitist tycoons, bigots and foreign tyrants, but has now become their willing tool.
"I write as a member of a family with roots deep in the Democratic Party. Among my forebears were Democrat party officials, the Democrat leader of the city of Brooklyn, a New York State Supreme Court justice first appointed to the bench by then-Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt – a man he grew to despise as FDR waded ever deeper into the socialist swamp, taking the nation with him, a mid-1860s-1870s New York County comptroller and sheriff, etc. They were Democrats to the core.
"I write today as a member of an extended family whose members abhor a Democratic Party which has betrayed its noble heritage and blackened its name forever.
"How can any practicing Christian vote Democrat?
"How can any practicing Christian vote for a party whose hands are covered with the blood of 40 million unborn victims of abortion – a horror which survives and continues to kill the innocent unborn only because most Democrat officials protect an abortion industry whose supporters contribute vast sums to the party and its candidates.
"The Democratic Party is so deeply committed to protecting those involved in this murderous practice that it once refused to let one of its leading officials, a sitting governor, speak at its national convention simply because he was a dedicated foe of the baby-killing industry and might attack the party's abortion industry supporters from the podium if permitted to air his views before the national TV audience.
"In recent months it has been revealed that the body parts of the victims of partial-birth abortion are being marketed by the abortuaries where this unspeakable crime is committed. Yet every effort, state or national, to block this hideous form of infanticide for profit has been blocked by the Democrat in the White House and his unscrupulous Democrat allies in Congress.
"How can any practicing Christian ever vote Democrat?
"How can any African-American vote Democrat?
"For the better part of the 20th century the Democratic Party has cynically exploited black voters, making promises it never fulfills while supporting policies designed to keep vast numbers of black Americans in poverty and ignorance and in thrall to the party and the big-government leviathan the Democratic Party has created and sustained.
"It has been the shameful policy of the Democratic Party to promote racial discord, setting white against black, while posing as a foe of the very racism from which it hopes to benefit.
"How can any farmer vote Democrat?
"How can any farmer support a party which has put the interests of America's farmers below those of the globalists whose policies are beggaring U.S. growers in favor of foreign agricultural interests.
"How can any parent vote Democrat when that party supports the interests of big government over the rights of parents, or small businessmen who are strangled by government regulations wound around their necks while the tycoons of the elitist multinational companies get favored treatment from the regulators.
"How can any American who cherishes his or her constitutional rights vote Democrat when that party conspires to violate or ignore the restraints placed on government by the Constitution, regularly tramples on the rights of individual citizens, and sets the interests of big government above those of the citizenry.
"How can any dedicated teacher who wants to teach effectively vote Democrat when that party has sold itself to the bloated teachers unions, whose policies have created a national school system which is turning out hordes of functional illiterates ignorant of the most basic forms of knowledge of everything from the English language to their own history and the history of the world.
"How can any American vote Democrat when that party has sold itself lock, stock and barrel to the predatory trial lawyers of America, whose assaults on American industry have cost every American the price of paying the bloated settlements obtained by these legal vultures.
"For 40 years, the Democrats controlled the Congress. During those 40 years Capitol Hill was a nest of thieves, demagogues, power-crazed tyrants and assorted socialist plotters. From the onset of the Roosevelt administration down to the present day, the Democratic Party has become the instrument of a tyrannical and corrupt socialist conspiracy whose policies have reduced Americans to a state of near-subservience to a government which kills the unborn, confiscates much of the earnings of working Americans through unjust taxation designed to buy votes with government programs, makes common cause with dictatorial regimes, bombs the innocent civilians of a sovereign nation in the name of a New World Order, and incinerates children or shoots them in places like Waco and Ruby Ridge.
"How in the name of God can any decent American vote for this party? Ever?"
The American people should be asked these questions over and over again between now and November.
